PGA Tour----2010

Where does Tiger Woods’ saga go? What will be the PGA Tour in the upcoming season?

Let me suggest that 2010 would be the perfect year to start following the LPGA Tour.
I know, the LPGA has been struggling itself lately. It has lost more than a few tournaments from its schedule over the past couple of seasons, and the dearth of American winners in 2009 has made it difficult for some fans to stay interested in the women's pro game here in the U.S. However, brighter times are ahead for the LPGA and I predict some exciting performances in 2010 from a bunch of new young players that you will love to follow week in and week out.

I had the chance to attend the LPGA Q School tournament earlier this month in Daytona Beach (I even caddied for one of the players) and can tell you that Amanda Blumenherst is definitely one new rookie who merits notice. Blumenherst won the five-day Q School event with a solid 9-under-par performance. She is the "real deal," and I would be surprised if she does not win on the LPGA Tour next year.

Look forward golf things in 2010 Beginning

In two days we can snuggle up inside and get swept away to the Hawaiian islands where it'll be sunny and in the 80s for the first tee shot of the 2010 PGA TOUR season.
We're already looking forward to so many things in 2010 beginning season, but we'll just let you in on our top 10:
1. The surprises. It's what we don't know that always intrigues us. Someone -- usually a few someones -- pop up out of nowhere and get our attention. It might be a Y.E. Yang or Angel Cabrera or Lucas Glover. It could be a revealing moment from Henrik Stenson or a blast from the past from Greg Norman or Tom Watson. It might be a face we don't yet know, but will be around for years to come.
2. The early season elbows. With Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson on the sidelines, the next few weeks aren't for the timid. A great start could lead to a great year. Or a breakthrough. Or a chance to throw yourself headlong into the Player of the Year race seriously early. It all starts with the 28-player , winners-only SBS Championship field. Yes, it's limited, don't think a guy like Geoff Ogilvy or Stewart Cink isn't ready to go. It could be the perfect springboard for another major year. It's also a chance for the young-uns like Nick Watney and Ryan Moore to set the tone for top-10 seasons. Just who'll be in form? We don't know. And that's the best part. Waiting to see who'll step up. Continue reading »
